Chapter 172: 172 Cutting Robes and Severing Righteousnessi
Spencer Burley’s family was also involved in some real estate businesses, having quite a broad network in this realm. Upon learning that Greg Jensen wanted to rent a house, he immediately made some phone calls.
In less than half an hour, over a dozen housing options were laid out in front of Greg Jensen.
“Well, you’re incredibly efficient,” Greg Jensen said, surprised.
Spencer Burley smiled proudly, “What’s this? I’m not even running things. If I were in charge, I could straight up gift you a house, and it wouldn’t be a problem.”
“Cut it out, I’m afraid the moment you give away a house, your aunt will be sending you off to the crematorium.”
“Crematorium wouldn’t do, getting buried alive is much better, saves trouble and money.”
After Adrian Wright finished speaking, he shared a glance with Greg Jensen, and the two laughed shadily together.
“Alas, an ill choice of friends,”
Spencer Burley pretended to sigh.
Adrian Wright joked, “Magnus, you’re practically becoming part of the Fords now, you need to start taking charge.”
Upon hearing this, Spencer Burley’s face instantly soured like a bitter gourd, “How about I give you the position of son-in-law then?”
Adrian Wright replied, “Don’t talk nonsense, Tracy Miles is just a bit overweight. In terms of family background and education, what does she not match up to you with?”
“Easy for you to say, standing there without the back pain,” Spencer Burley retorted angrily.
After saying that, he then turned to Greg Jensen, pleading, “Brother Greg, think of a way to save me.”
Greg Jensen was silent for a moment, then he composed himself and said sternly, “Magnus, if you really consider me a brother, then listen to my advice.
Although Tracy Miles is a bit overweight now, she has a good foundation. If she loses weight, she will definitely be a great beauty.
Moreover, I observe that Tracy Miles has a full forehead and a face that carries the signs of fortune, being with her would bring great benefits to the Burleys.”
Spencer Burley thought he was being teased again, and couldn’t help expressing his outrage,
“Greg! To trip up a brother, you’re even bringing up the hocus-pocus of face reading? I’m going to cut ties with you!”
After he finished speaking, he saw that Greg Jensen still had a very serious expression, not joking in the slightest, and he was stunned.
He asked uncertainly, “Bro, are you serious?”
“Do I look like I am joking?”
“Uh…”
Adrian Wright was also taken aback and said in astonishment, “Bro, you can read faces?”
“I know a little.”
This time, Greg Jensen truly wasn’t being modest. The thing about face reading, it was indeed mentioned in “The Classic of Yin-Yang Harmony,” but he never found it useful and hadn’t studied it much.
He thought for a moment and continued, “How about this, ask Tracy Miles if she wants to lose weight. If she does, let me know, and I’ll prescribe her something.”
” What kind of prescription? One that helps with weight loss?”
“Mhm, mainly to remove internal damp heat and some quick weight loss methods.”
Upon hearing this, Spencer Burley was shocked, looking confused, “Holy shit, Bro Greg, you even have a way to lose weight? Is there anything you can’t do?” “Have a baby?”
Adrian Wright chimed in and then added, “Although Brother Greg can’t have a baby, he can help out.”
“Get outta here, you two are getting more and more off-topic.”
“Hahaha…”
In the club’s restaurant, laughter from Adrian Wright and Spencer Burley suddenly filled the room.
Back in his room, Greg Jensen was about to brush his teeth and go to bed when he received a call from Vince Cooper, whose voice seemed to tremble as if something had happened.
“What happened?”
Vince Cooper said shakily, “Mr. Jensen, someone is preventing me from leaving. Could you come and pick me up?”
“Hmm, send me your location. I’m on my way now.”
Greg Jensen didn’t hesitate, immediately agreeing as he drove Adrian Wright’s BMW over there.
The location Vince Cooper sent him was a restaurant. Greg Jensen thought it was like Summer Snow, who was hassled by some hooligans.
But when he arrived, he found that those blocking her way were several drunken students.
“Vince Cooper, you’re really not giving face here. Theo Carter invited you specially to his birthday, and yet you won’t drink a single sip of alcohol?”
“It’s one thing not to drink, but trying to sneak away—what the hell do you mean by that?”
A few classmates, mouths reeking of alcohol, were vaguely encircling Vince Cooper.
“I already said I don’t drink alcohol. Why do you insist on forcing me to drink?”
Vince Cooper’s face looked troubled as she frowned, “Also, I can go wherever I want. What’s it to you? Move aside quick, my boyfriend will be coming to pick me up soon.”
Upon hearing this, the lead student’s expression immediately darkened as he angrily said, “Vince Cooper, I’m warning you. Don’t play dumb with me.
Theo Carter has been pursuing you for so long. How could you not know his intentions?”
“Right, Theo has done so much for you. Even a heart of stone would be moved, wouldn’t it?”
“Moreover, Theo prepared a surprise for you today. If you leave now, wouldn’t his efforts be wasted?”
Just then, a tall and mighty student rushed out, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
He knelt on one knee in front of Vince Cooper and with a mouthful of alcohol breath said, “Vince Cooper, I like you. Be my girlfriend.”
Before he could finish speaking, several girls following him scattered petals around them, forming a circle.
The boys lit candles they had in hand and arranged them into a heart shape around them.
“Together, together…”
The surrounding classmates all started to chant, one after another, trying to get Vince Cooper to agree to Theo Carter.
Vince Cooper said with a cold face, “Sorry, I already have a boyfriend, so I can’t accept these flowers.”
After saying this, she walked toward the exit.
Theo Carter’s face darkened as he stood up quickly, blocking Vince Cooper’s path, and frowned, “You have a boyfriend? Why don’t I know about it?”
At Jamae University, Vince Cooper was utterly a goddess-level figure with countless admirers. Theo Carter, being one of the most ardent among them, always kept an eye on her every move.
Therefore, hearing that Vince Cooper already had a boyfriend left Theo Carter utterly dumbfounded, and his face quickly grew darker.
He excitedly grabbed Vince Cooper’s arm, his expression bordering on crazed as he asked, “You have a boyfriend? Why don’t I know about it?”
Vince Cooper, in pain, her face turning pale, struggled to push him away and angrily said, “You’re so strange. Why should I tell you that I have a boyfriend?” Theo Carter, annoyed and angry, asked, “Then what am I? Huh? I’ve pursued you for so long, what does that make me?”
Vince Cooper instinctively stepped back and said sternly, “Theo Carter, I’ve told you before, I don’t like you, and it’s impossible for us to be together.
And the gifts you sent me, I’ve never accepted any of them. Today, you mentioned it’s your birthday, and dragged me here in front of so many classmates.
I came to have dinner with you out of politeness. Don’t go too far!”
